  Newly emptied bourbon barrels

  Posted by themechwarrior on May 20, 2017 at 2:06 pm

  I’m looking for a supplier in the US to meet my bulk barrel needs here in Australia.

  Wishing to fill a 20ft or 40ft shipping container as a first order to test the process.

  I’m looking at the following needs as a minimum for my next season (sizes are approximate, use as a guide only):

  Quantity	Litres	US gal
  200	20	5
  50	50	13
  50	100	26
  50	225	59
  50	300	79
  12	500	132

  Let me know what you have available and what you feel you may be able to supply.

  Any pointers to suppliers greatly appreciated.

  Cheers,

  Mech.

  http://barrelsandracks.fishcreative.com/barrels/ might be able to help you.

   

  You aren’t likely to find any 300 or 500 liter bourbon barrels, if you do they will be wine casks that someone finished bourbon in.

  I use Rocky Mountain Barrel Company for most of our used barrels.  I’ve been pretty pleased with them so far.

  Incidentally, we’ve got ~30 (15) gallon barrels used for agricole rum if you’re interested.  We are moving into larger barrels.  Wouldn’t be a long term solution for you though.

  Cheers

  We use new 25 gallon (about 90-95 liters in practice) barrels for most of our 77 Whiskey.  And so I have a regular supply of once used for sale.

  Let me know if you are interested.

  Can vouch for Brad, his barrels have fantastic aroma.
